About Moi

I was born in June 1981, I'm a hearing impaired paper-crafter who loves all things crafty. I sew, although I'm still very much a novice at sewing. I bake and cook hopefully all kinds of delicious treats. I have a huge passion for photography and the camera {yes I'm old school I still use an actual camera} is never far from me. I also love creative writing from making up sentiments/verses for my cards and other paper-craft projects to penning some fiction. I am an avid reader and I may even throw in some book reviews on here too!

Okay so I admit I'm rambling a lot in the title but I don't really know how to explain it {nothing new there then}.

For this challenge {I'm very happy to finally feeling fit enough to try some crafting} I have coloured using promarkers Ike's image and cut it out. I stuck it onto a floral paper so it looks as though there is something in the basket. I then stuck a strip of white card on the back so it will "spring" up and down.

I then cut that tight so there wasn't a border. I heat embossed a square in green and then cut my own grass blades from it. Before I backed my card, I cut a small hole in the paper and popped the image in it. When gluing the paper to the card I missed out the bit under the slidey thing for the springing image.

Once the image was in place I stuck the grass blades on using the heat gun and only gluing the very bottom of the blades.

I die cut two leaves and hand wrote in green "Spring has Sprung"...I wanted them in the bottom corner but they didn't fit so they went up the top.

Thank you
